Privacy Policy for X-Puzzle-Kit
Effective Date: 2026-02-10
Introduction
X-Puzzle-Kit (“we”, “our”, or “the toolkit”) provides a Chrome Extension and a Web/PWA application to help users stitch and split images for X (Twitter). We are committed to transparency and represent that we do not collect, store, or share any of your personal data.
Data Processing & Flow
Depending on which version of the toolkit you use, the data flow varies:
1. Chrome Extension (PC)
- 100% Local Processing: The extension operates entirely within your browser environment.
- No External Communication: It does not send any data (image URLs, settings, or content) to any external servers.
- Direct DOM Access: It reads image URLs directly from the X (Twitter) page you are viewing to perform stitching.
2. Web App / PWA
- Tweet Parsing: To bypass browser security restrictions (CORS), the Web version sends the tweet URL you provide to a secure backend proxy (Cloudflare Worker).
- Metadata Extraction: The backend parses the tweet to find image URLs and returns them to your browser.
- No Storage: We do not log, store, or track the URLs you send. The proxy is transient and stateless.
- Local Manipulation: Once the image URLs are returned, all actual image processing (stitching/splitting) is performed locally on your device using HTML Canvas. Images are never uploaded to our servers.
Data Collection and Usage
We do not collect any personal information.
- No User Accounts: The application operates without any user account system.
- No Analytics: We do not track your usage behavior, navigation history, or geographical location.
- No Cookies: We do not use tracking cookies. Local preferences are stored in your browser’s local storage.
Permissions Usage (Extension Only)
The extension requests specific permissions to function correctly:
- Host Permissions (
https://twitter.com/*, https://x.com/*): To detect and extract image sources directly from the timeline.
- Downloads: To save the finished images to your device.
- Storage: To save your local preferences (e.g., preferred file format).
Third-Party Services
- Hosting: The Web version is hosted on Cloudflare Pages.
- Proxy: The parsing logic runs on Cloudflare Workers.
- Images: Image assets are fetched directly from X (Twitter) servers (e.g.,
pbs.twimg.com).
